METHOD FOR PRODUCING THREE-DIMENSIONAL RADIONUCLIDE SOURCES WITH BUTT-END WORKING SURFACE

摘要

FIELD: nuclear engineering; gamma-ray sources for oncologic disease treatment. SUBSTANCE: proposed method for producing three-dimensional ionizing radiation sources with buttend working surface such as gamma-ray sources for teletherapeutic application includes layer- by-layer placement of radionuclide having reduced specific activity in layers at working end of source. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency of source. 1 cl, 1 tbl
